Back to Marietas Islands (Las) Marietas is Gorgeous This was an incredible tour that I took with Vallarta Adventures...and the coolest part about the tour was that there are no vendors at all on this tour...not a single person will come up to you and ask if you want to buy anything.....the tour guides...who are extremely well versed in diving and such....take you into the coves of the island and show you all about what the sea life is...and where to dive down...we got to see a bunch of cool stuff.....then we went to los arcos beach...again...a nature preseve that there are no vendors or anyone else besides our small group of 25....it was so cool.... I recomend dealing with Vallarta Adventures because they are very very good..
Reviewed by: DREW M from on Oct 03 2007 OK but just OK Water on the east side of the inner island is fairly clear but drops off to deep water very quickly and you are not allowed to touch or even near the small amount of coral. When someone on the boat throws bread into the water the fish will teem to it giving you a momentary treat.

Reviewed by: A Yahoo! Contributor from on Mar 18 2005 Just OK The tour we took was, ok. Just ok. Definitely make sure you get a boat with shade. We almost went with a more expensive trip only to later notice there wasn't any shade on that boat. The hour snorkeling was NOTHING compared to Hawaii or the South Pacific, but the water was clear and warm. Not too many fish and the only ones that were there were lured by bread crumbs.
